Kind of sums things up

Yes that will work. Please note below: The combination pintle/Ball hitch assembly bolted to the bumper is subject to how good your bumper and associated bolts strength, age etc. It is an okay design, but not rock solid and for obvious reasons the above should be inspected and or replaced...

73M819 just put a curtis on my M1009. I think that all the the receiver hitches all have challenges. The curtis is a nice hitch and would bolt up to a stock k5 in less than 30 minutes. For a M1009 expect 3-4 hours dependant on your approach. Approaches 1.) Leave hitch assembly in place and...

Sorry me and Ron ran the numbers on a Gun Truck build last night and they got scary quick :( I am going to be an observer and admire those that have been down this path!

Okay we need some updates!!! Talked to the sawmill yesterday as many of you know it has rained for 8 days straight in GA so today is the first sunny day and will allow the red oak to be pulled out of the kiln. That being done then they need about 3-4 days to get the rough cut to the right...

I thought you would enjoy that! I took some pictures with the Drone yesterday after I updated fuel tanks to allow for long range recon.

Comfort Texas, interesting Demographics, looks like a nice small town area and has one of the most historically preserved downtown in the whole state of texas. You have to be careful in Comfort as they are Freethinkers. Comfort was established in 1854 by German immigrants, who...

Just for future reference when you buy your next CUCV you could have pulled 12 volts from the front battery, lights, heater etc. The starter circuit is the only 24 volt circuit in the system.

Airtex E8135 One died during running One died when the fuel tank ran empty and the pump was shut off within 30 seconds but it did not matter That is my experience. Voltage has not been checked since the initial installation. The third pump now is installed but only used for priming.

I have the Airtex, same type on M62 but in 24 volts. I have burned out 2 of these pumps before going back and fixing the mechanical pump. If you do go that route I would recommend you that have a tested spare in the vehicle at all times as they are not that reliable. So do you really want...

Remember that Commander Z is color blind! PS don't tell him he mixed the wrong colors :)

Are you going to liner the interior, exterior or both? Do you really want to take the glass out? Not much metal to liner up around the glass that could not be done with a good tape job. Then once you take out the glass how do you keep from getting all over the exterior paint job?

The Pink looks great on your trailer. You should do some accents with the pink color on the fenders to go along with the storage box. Good thing I was not there to do some spraying with the Pink Spray gun!

They are going to owners who want to dump stuff :) Sorry could not resist. I saw 2 on a construction site the other day in Atlanta

I was told by a certain party that they painted the yellow to allow a clear distinction from the air when they called in the air strikes to hot zones ?

What day is the PIGGGGGGGGGGGGYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Roasting?

Darn now I am going to have to build a gun truck!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now about that trailer I caught in the corner of the garage in post 401, last picture :deadhorse: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?83422-WC-51-Restoration-or-Bust!!&p=1454589&viewfull=1#post1454589

Every man approaches a project with a different perspective and skill set. Some are looking for perfection, some escape, some want immediate outcome and results, others are looking for the challenge. Whatever your approach, the expectations should be yours and yours alone. The problem with...

To Commander Z's credit swiss the woodman's opinion on the WC22 wood bed is SWEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
